中文解析
A选项: long FRA,即支付固定的利率,收到的是浮动利率,因此会在利率上升的时候获利;但是long interest rate futures是在利率下跌的时候获利。A错。
B选项,为了对冲利率下跌带来的风险,应该进入的是在利率下跌的时候可以获利的头寸,因此应该进入short FRA的头寸。
C选项,期货合约的价格和利率是反向关系,因此short interest rate futures在利率上升的时候获利,正确。
future 和forward不是正好反过来的吗
害怕利率 下跌对于forward来说就是short position,但是future正好反过来,不是应该LONG一个吗
